THE BLACK SWAN-Effect
Meaning:
A Black swan is an unpredictable event that is beyond what is normally expected of a situation and has potentially severe consequences, causing extreme damages to the economy of one country or several countries or the world economy.
Black swan events are characterized by their extreme rarity, their severe impact, and the practice of explaining widespread failure to predict them as simple folly in hindsight.
A Black swan event, a phrase commonly used in the world of Finance, is an extremely negative event or occurrence that is impossibly difficult to predict.
In other words, black swan events are events that are unexpected and unknowable.
The term was popularized by former Wall Street trader Nassim Nicholas Taleb, who wrote about the concept in his 2001 book Fooled by Randomness.
Taleb outlined the three defining attributes of a black swan event:
1. An event that is unpredictable.
2. A black swan event results in severe and widespread consequences.
3. After the occurrence of a black swan event, people will rationalize the event as having been predictable (known as the hindsight bias).
Thus, a Black swan is a metaphor that discuss a hard to predict event or a surprise in many aspects of our society. It thus describes randomness and uncertainty.
The occurrence of an event is a Black Swan if you are not informed of it, thus you are a sucker.
There is also a Grey Swan which signifies an event,Known Unknowns as compared, the Black swan events, are Unknown Unknows.
Unpredictable events are actually much more common than people think and are the norm and not the exception with wide spread consequences.
It normally refers to an extremely rare negative event, which is impossible to predict. It is infinite and an unknown event.
Never deny a Black swan event, as it happens to anyone. Plan for the worst, Black swan effect, even for you, individually.
Point to note based on Black swan events, is, what is proved right today, may not hold good forever, it may prove wrong tomorrow and vice versa is also true.
